4. Activate open market operations to control the price of securities and assist the government in the distribution of securities.

5. Ensure liquidity and equity capital for the growth and protection of the production through the banking system within the regulated programs in order to control the increase of liquidity.

6. Establish coordination between the Ministry of Industry, Mine and Trade of Iran, the Iranian Customs Administration and the Central Bank of Iran in order to create a financial mechanism and import through barter with friendly and neighboring countries.
